The Deus Ex film will be based off 2011's Deus Ex: Human Revolution, with the project starring Adam Jensen. While there's no word on how closely the movie will follow the Square Enix game, it's understood that the plot will follow Jensen — who will be mechanically augmented — unraveling a worldwide conspiracy.

There's no slated release date yet for Deus Ex, with the film needing a new director and cast. Stay tuned to IGN for more on the movie adaption of the well-known video game franchise.
